Home Depot sells RF switches whereby if the fan is connected to the transmitter. It can be controlled by as far as 5 meters i believe In my SPA i have this device for safety. switch here get turn on there
What else can I help you with?
How do you wire one light and one GFCI and another light light and fan with two switches and one power line?
Connect the incoming power to the line side of the GFCi outlet. Now run another wire connected to the line side of the GFCI outlet from the GFCI outlet to the switches. Power one of the switches and use that switch to turn on the 2 lights. Run power from that switch to another switch and use that switch to send power to the fan. Mount both switches in a double pole switch box. If the light above the sink has an outlet on it then you will have to connect power going to that light on the load side of the GFCI outlet. If not then just connect it to the line side.
Why would an in line fan work on a GFCI outlet then trip the outlet and Nothing changed?
The in line fan may be drawing too much power for the GFCI outlet to handle, causing it to trip. The outlet may not be faulty; rather, it is doing its job by tripping to prevent electrical hazards. Consider using the in line fan on a different circuit or using a lower wattage fan to prevent further tripping.
GFCI plug trips when fan is turned on?
The Ground Fault Current/Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) detects current flowing to ground that should instead be flowing in the fan. This means somewhere in the fan the Hot wire has an unintended path to ground and is a shock hazard. You should check the wiring to the fan (with power off) and make sure there are no bare wires that could be causing your problem and if you don't see anything obvious you should replace the fan.
How do you wire a 3 wire exhaust fan to a 4 wire outlet?
The fan is probably a 115 VAC single phase fan and the outlet is probably a 230 VAC "two phase" outlet. The fan would then have the following wires: hot (black), neutral (white), and ground (green). The outlet would then have the following wires: hot #1 (black), hot #2 (red), neutral (white), and ground (green). Pick either of the two hot wires on the outlet and connect the hot wire of the fan to that (ignore the other hot wire on the outlet) and connect the neutral to neutral and ground to ground. If the wire colors are not as I described above you may have something else (e.g. 3-phase) and that would be wired differently, but those systems are usually used only in industrial settings not the home.
If you have a switch wired red and black and a fan that calls for black and white where does the red wire go?
It sounds like your fan also has a light with it. If your wall switch is a two gang box with two switches in it most likely one switch is for the light on only and the other switch is for the fan on only. This can be checked out by installing the fan and making the connection green to green, white to white, black to black. Turn on one of the switches and see if the fan operates. Disconnect this connection and then connect the red wire to the black fan wire. Turn the other switch on. If the fan turns on again, then the two switches were installed to operate the fan and light separately. If this is the case disconnect the red and fan black wires and reconnect the black to black. This is the fan connection. Connect the red to blue fan wire and this is the light on the fan connection.
How do you wire one light and one GFCI and another light light and fan with two switches and one power line?

If not then just connect it to the line side.
How do you Wire a light from a switched outlet?
See: "How can you re-wire a wall switch that controls an outlet to control a ceiling fan?" (Follow the link below.) The procedure is the same whether the new device is a light fixture or a ceiling fan.

How can I wire a bathroom fan and light to operate on the same switch?
To wire a bathroom fan and light to operate on the same switch, you will need to connect the hot wires from both the fan and light to the hot wire coming from the switch. Then, connect the neutral wires from both the fan and light to the neutral wire coming from the switch. Finally, connect the ground wires from both the fan and light to the ground wire coming from the switch. This will allow you to control both the fan and light with a single switch.
How can I properly install and wire a 4 wire fan switch in my ceiling fan?
To properly install and wire a 4 wire fan switch in your ceiling fan, follow these steps: Turn off the power to the ceiling fan at the circuit breaker. Remove the existing fan switch cover and disconnect the wires from the old switch. Connect the new 4 wire fan switch by matching the wire colors to the corresponding terminals (usually labeled L, 1, 2, 3). Secure the wires with wire nuts and replace the switch cover. Turn the power back on and test the fan switch to ensure it is working properly. If you are unsure about any step, consult a professional electrician for assistance.
How do you wire a fan switch correctly?
To wire a fan switch correctly, first turn off the power to the fan. Then, connect the hot wire from the fan to the hot wire from the power source, and the neutral wire from the fan to the neutral wire from the power source. Finally, connect the ground wire from the fan to the ground wire from the power source. Make sure to follow the manufacturer's instructions and use proper safety precautions.
How should I properly wire a ceiling fan light switch to ensure safe and efficient operation?
To properly wire a ceiling fan light switch for safe and efficient operation, follow these steps: Turn off the power to the ceiling fan at the circuit breaker. Remove the existing light switch cover and switch from the wall. Identify the wires - typically, there will be a black (hot) wire, a white (neutral) wire, and a green or bare copper (ground) wire. Connect the black wire from the ceiling fan to the black wire from the switch using wire nuts. Connect the white wire from the ceiling fan to the white wire from the switch using wire nuts. Connect the green or bare copper wire from the ceiling fan to the ground wire from the switch using wire nuts. Secure the wires with electrical tape and carefully tuck them back into the wall box. Install the new light switch and cover. Turn the power back on at the circuit breaker and test the ceiling fan light switch to ensure it is working properly. By following these steps, you can wire a ceiling fan light switch safely and efficiently.
How do I properly wire a fan switch to ensure safe and efficient operation?
To properly wire a fan switch for safe and efficient operation, follow these steps: Turn off power to the circuit, identify the hot wire, connect the hot wire to the switch, connect the switch to the fan, and test the operation before turning the power back on.
How do you wire a fan switch?
To wire a fan switch, first turn off the power to the circuit. Connect the hot wire from the power source to the black wire on the switch. Connect the white wire from the power source to the white wire on the fan. Connect the ground wires together. Secure all connections with wire nuts and cover with electrical tape. Turn the power back on and test the switch to ensure it is working properly.
